If you were a pro You'd know that since 2003 nobody will accept anything under 96kHz in the business!!!
 
How about 45's? I thought 78's were out of date.
 
well there was one just before me.
And I want it to stay as subject.

Can you elaborate? Maybe link us to some white papers? Being a pro like you are, you would certainly have something to back this stuff up. Let us in on it. We want to learn.

Man this is just not true. Who doesn't accept 44kHz\24bit ? Mixing engineers ? Mastering Engineers ? Producers ?

There is still ALOT of medium to big name stuff tracked and mixed at 24\44.1...96kHz is becoming more of a standard, but it isn't there yet.

the studio i work in doesn't even have 96khz capability. our max is 48. we have a protools system, and it was top of the line a year and a half ago. we are the biggest studio in nor cal.

are you really that thick skulled?
 
If you only accept 96k, then you would be missing out on a lot of work

What gets me is this guy's use of 'the business' as if it's some monolithic tower that only certain cool people are allowed into. We are all in 'the business' of making music and in 'the business' of recording music.

Whenever I hear someone talk about 'the business' it's a sure sign that they're either a wannabe or a huge asshole.

from now on, i will not accept anything that is digital. it HAS to be tracked on 2" Studer machines. and any drums HAVE to be tracked using a Pearl drumset.

First of all there is no Analog tape company still manufacturing tapes.Not one left.Sad I agree but wont cry over it.What are you gonna do ??Use used tapes????
Second of all become a AES member.It is not very expansive and it has its profits.They set standards which are impossible to avoid.
Since 2003 no recording label will accept less then 24 bit 96kHz.
There was a standard set buy AES:
Recommendation for delivery of recorded music projects
The reason no recording label will accept anything under 96kHz is very practical. It is not sufficient to master.Not really usable on DVD movies.Nobody will consider rerecording and paying for it.The best deal for a label is to send everything to master and cut on recording.And 44kHz 16 bit is just a mean format that sucks.In 1980 people were faithing over the standard for cd.The Americans (who else) wanted quantity instead of quality.
They wanted 70 mins of music in order to cut on production of cds.

and referring to the guy who says this is an amateur forum I will respond:

I believe in sharing knowledge and a lot of people here deserve to know.That is what makes our community grow and that is what takes the power from the major recording companies.A lot of independent engineers who know what they are doing and can deliver a good quality commercial recording.
Shit I can make an amazing recording with Apogee mini me and tlm 103 plus Pentium 3 laptop and a nice room.Maybe stereo pair for drum.Bunch of overdubs.
Whit this altitude my friend you wont go more then playing at the coffee shop around the corner for a free bagel. :D

I am not a recording label.
And I very rarly accept somebody elses tracking for mixing mastering.

Tracking and mixing are connected like spoon and a cup of soup.

First of all Thanks for the compliment. I consider myself a pro cause I pay my bills and buy new equipment without scaming and robbing poor musicians. I do a lot of non-profit recordings for people who realy deserve to and can not afford it.I spend 33 hours just this month without geting paid.
Second of all THe Music business like any other HiTek business is moving very
fast.You eather keep up with it or stay behind.You choose.
